Novak Djokovic, Venus Williams and Kyle Edmund headline the opening day of Wimbledon 2019.

2018 men's champion Djokovic begins his defence against unseeded Philipp Kohlschreiber before women's number two seed Naomi Osaka takes on Yuila Putintseva and Kyle Edmund wraps up the first day on Centre Court against Jaume Munar.

Last year's men's finalist Kevin Anderson begins his campaign on Monday, as does Stan Warwrinka, Alexander Zverev, Simona Halep and Venus Williams, who plays 15-year-old Cori Gauff.

There is no immediate damger of rain delaying any of the action in the first week of play with sun expected throughout the week.

Novak Djokovic 6-3 Philipp Kohlschreiber*

FIRST SET DJOKOVIC!

Despite an outstanding volley by Philipp at 30-0 which lands dead on the baseline, Djokovic brings up two set points with a forehand winner and he takes it as Kohlschreiber's goes wayward with a forehand.

The four-time champ is a set up on Centre.
